How special they are, huh? And the chipped Santa and Mrs. Claus is a treasure, I love them! The Royal lady that belonged to your Mom is lovely, and these are the porcelain figurines that I always look for in the shops. They are hard to find. The Santa that reminds you of your advisor is delightful, and he really looks like the real Santa, doesn't he? And I absolutely LOVE the photo of you, all bright eyed and curious for Christmas. Thanks for sharing some of your favorite things, Jeanie. I really enjoyed seeing them all. : )<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-3513116995965936272019-12-07T16:41:36.547-05:002019-12-07T16:41:36.547-05:00Wonderful post and photographs.

She took those with her when she went to live in France, then Holland and now The Philippines. She was just setting up her tree the other day and showing me all our old ornaments, some of them home made by me with felt, many years ago. She's happy to have them and thinks they are very special.Samihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06467163627586022816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-41697688373594337332019-12-07T08:53:05.357-05:002019-12-07T08:53:05.357-05:00So many charming ornaments Jeanie!

They were my grandparents' and, even though I no longer have a place for a large tree, I keep them, along with the other ornaments, in the event I DO find a way to set up a large tree again. For some reason, I don't remember the gingerbread ornaments. The others I've mostly seen in the past. I love them this time of year when you share your various trees and your decorations, too.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-69236541492010427742019-12-06T08:44:59.857-05:002019-12-06T08:44:59.857-05:00Jeanie, you are amazing and your collections are a...Jeanie, you are amazing and your collections are also.

I actually know where they are, but they're buried under other boxes. Maybe I should stack boxes in the shape of a tree and put some construction paper bells and stars on it. On the other hand, maybe I should just keep unpacking!shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-35300270354236269462019-12-06T06:16:51.330-05:002019-12-06T06:16:51.330-05:00It was so lovely to see all your Christmas decorat...It was so lovely to see all your Christmas decorations.
